I was wondering if someone could tell me what type of information is found on citizenship papers. My grandfather came from czech and received his papers in 1924(yonkers, ny). If the papers are worth getting where would I obtain them? Thanks, Joy --------------------------------- Expecting? Get great news right away with email Auto-Check. Try the Yahoo! Mail Beta.
Joy, Some of the Naturalizations indexed on line, the index does not tell all that is on papers but has some info including dates and numbers. http://www.jgsny.org/kingsintro1.htm , http://www.italiangen.org/databaselist.stm. These are two of the places they can be found but you can google for a more specific site. I worked on the Long Island list for the Italian Gen Web which worked with the Jewish and German groups, the latter being my field of interest on my Mother's side. My Westchester families were here before the Revolution, at least the Gordineers, not gotten that far back with the Seymours, My GGgrandpa Hiram may have come from CT haven't found much on him or anything earlier. That is my next quest. -----Original Message----- From: nywestch-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:nywestch-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of Joy McMillan Sent: Thursday, February 22, 2007 7:28 AM To: nywestch@rootsweb.com Subject: [NYWESTCH] westchester genealogy I was wondering if someone could tell me what type of information is found on citizenship papers.
